No team in this year's College Football Playoff has been more impressive than Ohio State. Over the past few weeks, Ryan Day's squad has looked unstoppable in every phase of the game.
Last week, Ohio State dismantled Oregon in the Rose Bowl. Will Howard was excellent for the Buckeyes, completing 17-of-26 pass attempts for 319 yards with three touchdowns. His top target was none other than Jeremiah Smith, who hauled in seven passes for 187 yards. The superstar freshman found his way to the endzone twice in Pasadena. Ohio State running back TreVeyon Henderson also played a big role in the 41-21 win, rushing for 94 yards and two scores.
Next up for Ohio State is a showdown with Texas in the Cotton Bowl. With kickoff still several hours away, the Buckeyes have released a hype video for their fans.
The video shows a ton of highlights along with a message about the team's "Ohio against the world" mentality.
"When you hear about Ohio against the world, there's a reason why we say that, there's a reason why it's said. When you're Ohio State, everybody is chasing you because they want what you have. And every week, we have to defend it," Day said. "That's the reason why it's called Ohio against the world. It's us against everybody else - that's it, and that's the mentality we have to have."
